"
The
prince
wants
to
bathe
.
"
"
What
prince
?
Ours
?
"
said
many
voices
,
and
the
men
were
in
such
haste
to
clear
out
that
the
prince
could
hardly
stop
them
.
He
decided
that
he
would
rather
wash
himself
with
water
in
the
barn
.
"
Flesh
,
bodies
,
cannon
fodder
!
"
he
thought
,
and
he
looked
at
his
own
naked
body
and
shuddered
,
not
from
cold
but
from
a
sense
of
disgust
and
horror
he
did
not
himself
understand
,
aroused
by
the
sight
of
that
immense
number
of
bodies
splashing
about
in
the
dirty
pond
.

On
the
seventh
of
August
Prince
Bagratión
wrote
as
follows
from
his
quarters
at
Mikháylovna
on
the
Smolénsk
road
:
Dear
Count
Aléxis
Andréevich
--
(
He
was
writing
to
Arakchéev
but
knew
that
his
letter
would
be
read
by
the
Emperor
,
and
therefore
weighed
every
word
in
it
to
the
best
of
his
ability
.
)
I
expect
the
Minister
(
Barclay
de
Tolly
)
has
already
reported
the
abandonment
of
Smolénsk
to
the
enemy
.
It
is
pitiable
and
sad
,
and
the
whole
army
is
in
despair
that
this
most
important
place
has
been
wantonly
abandoned
.
I
,
for
my
part
,
begged
him
personally
most
urgently
and
finally
wrote
him
,
but
nothing
would
induce
him
to
consent
.
I
swear
to
you
on
my
honor
that
Napoleon
was
in
such
a
fix
as
never
before
and
might
have
lost
half
his
army
but
could
not
have
taken
Smolénsk
.
Our
troops
fought
,
and
are
fighting
,
as
never
before
.
With
fifteen
thousand
men
I
held
the
enemy
at
bay
for
thirty-five
hours
and
beat
him
;
but
he
would
not
hold
out
even
for
fourteen
hours
.
It
is
disgraceful
,
a
stain
on
our
army
,
and
as
for
him
,
he
ought
,
it
seems
to
me
,
not
to
live
.
If
he
reports
that
our
losses
were
great
,
it
is
not
true
;
perhaps
about
four
thousand
,
not
more
,
and
not
even
that
;
but
even
were
they
ten
thousand
,
that
's
war
!
But
the
enemy
has
lost
masses
...

What
would
it
have
cost
him
to
hold
out
for
another
two
days
?
They
would
have
had
to
retire
of
their
own
accord
,
for
they
had
no
water
for
men
or
horses
.
He
gave
me
his
word
he
would
not
retreat
,
but
suddenly
sent
instructions
that
he
was
retiring
that
night
.
We
can
not
fight
in
this
way
,
or
we
may
soon
bring
the
enemy
to
Moscow
...
There
is
a
rumor
that
you
are
thinking
of
peace
.
God
forbid
that
you
should
make
peace
after
all
our
sacrifices
and
such
insane
retreats
!
You
would
set
all
Russia
against
you
and
everyone
of
us
would
feel
ashamed
to
wear
the
uniform
.
If
it
has
come
to
this
--
we
must
fight
as
long
as
Russia
can
and
as
long
as
there
are
men
able
to
stand
...
One
man
ought
to
be
in
command
,
and
not
two
.
Your
Minister
may
perhaps
be
good
as
a
Minister
,
but
as
a
general
he
is
not
merely
bad
but
execrable
,
yet
to
him
is
entrusted
the
fate
of
our
whole
country
...
I
am
really
frantic
with
vexation
;
forgive
my
writing
boldly
